The overheating problem is something that often happens with hard raced
675s, they don't quite flow enough water to cool efficiently, but they
need some kind of restriction in the flow to ensure that any cold water
flowing through does take heat away with it. The problem is that if the
thermostat is removed completely, the metal bits run even hotter even
though the gauge shows cooler, because the water is running way too
fast to actually cool anything and is still quite cool when it hits the
temp sender.
Sounds like it might be due to the difference between turbulent and
laminar flow in the cooling fluid.
